Today is not the fifteenth day of the new year, but the imperial court has held a great court meeting... However, no one was puzzled by this, because the military intelligence was Jinling City last night.

One night was enough time for the news to spread completely among the upper circles of the city.

It is still the familiar process of the court, and the hundred officials walk into the palace along the long palace road behind the palace gate, but the atmosphere this time is more serious and dull than the last time King Yan entered the capital - because the court lost the battle.

God, there has never been such a major incident for more than 30 years, and Emperor Taizu has just left and become such a mess?

In the past, the officials who opposed the cutting of the feudal domain and the implementation of the Zhou rites naturally suppressed their elation under a solemn expression, but how to look at the footsteps and how excited; Most of the officials were still worried, because they remembered how Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who resembled the first emperor, had trampled the face of the court and the Son of Heaven under his feet, and now how he had beaten the imperial army to the ground.

It seems that the supervising imperial history has no mind to supervise the etiquette of hundreds of officials, and the elderly minister spits on the side of the road and pretends not to see it, and everyone's thoughts are converging to a little - what is Your Majesty going to do?

But obviously Zhu Yunwen doesn't have a definite answer either, because of his dark circles... It's heavy.

"Everyone, Aiqing is flat, it is really determined that Yan won the first battle, and the imperial army suffered heavy casualties, what should I do next?"

It stands to reason that His Majesty only needs to sit on the archway at the beginning of the Great Dynasty Meeting, but who knows that this person is really in a hurry, so anxious that he even robs the work of the eunuch.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he also saved a lot of cumbersome processes, such as foreign officials entering Beijing to meet the Son of Heaven... It's all fucking now, who is still in the mood to meet with officials from other places? Didn't you see that His Majesty's anxiety was written on his face?

Everyone's eyes were on Fang Huang Qi and the three of them--the matter of cutting the domain, isn't it always you who dance the most? At the beginning, you also agreed on the dispatch of troops in the imperial study, since this is the case, what do you ask the hundred officials to do?

This gaze is too naked, Rao is three of them discussed with Zhu Yunwen for a long time yesterday, and they had already been mentally prepared and couldn't help blushing, and finally Fang Xiaoru stood up: "Your Majesty, General Geng... Now that he has lost this battle, General Geng is really not suitable to be the commander of the three armies, and the minister dares to ask His Majesty to change a general to go north to be the commander of the three armies..."

Before the words were finished, there was already an uproar in the Jinluan Palace, and all the officials looked at Fang Xiaoru with some incredulity, really didn't understand how this person could be so shameless!

Who had to force Geng Bingwen to go in the first place? Why couldn't you remember the old General Geng's "old age" at the beginning?

Does this count as picking up the bowl to eat, putting down the bowl and scolding the mother?

After all, there were still people who couldn't stand it and stood up, but no one thought that it was Qi Tai who stood up: "This matter must not be done!" ”

At first, the expressions of the hundred officials were the same as Zhu Yunwen and Fang Xiaoru's stunned, but after a while, their expressions immediately became meaningful.

There's a good show to watch...

The trio of cutting feudal clans have always advanced and retreated together in the court, after all, their biggest political asset is His Majesty today, as long as His Majesty still trusts them, as long as His Majesty still wants to implement the Zhou ceremony, they can have a place in the Jinluan Palace, but officialdom is like a battlefield, and it is easy to overturn if the foundation is not good, so the three of them have always been holding together for warmth, how can it be today... Are you still angry in front of Your Majesty?

And looking at His Majesty's expression, this is still not angry?

Interesting, interesting.

Qi Tai paused, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, the northern war situation is not a battle that can be decided, although the Marquis of Changxing is defeated, but he has not lost the fundamentals, the old general Geng, the veteran of the country, Your Majesty can give a stern reprimand, and then make him guilty and make meritorious service, with the means of the Marquis of Changxing, Yan will be difficult to determine the difficulty of the city and one step closer to the city..."

The military department Shangshu stood up and spoke, and it was the first thing he said, the war maniacs of the military department naturally wanted to stand up and make a strong voice, and the military department squire took a step forward and said together: "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”

"Seconded! Qi Shangshu is an old man, and Changxing Hou can still be of great use! ”

"The minister also seconded it!"

More and more people came out, some of them were Qi Tai's henchmen who developed through the prestige of the trio during this time, some of them were because they were in the same military department and always wanted to give Lord Shangshu a little face, but some of them really felt that Geng Bingwen, who had resisted Zhang Shicheng for ten years, was enough to stop King Yan from going south, so they stood up and spoke out, but they didn't notice that the face of the young man sitting on it was getting more and more ugly.

"Enough!" Zhu Yunwen coldly interrupted their words, "Geng Bingwen is stupid and incompetent, and he is useless!" How can I use him again? When you change a general, lead the rebel army, and destroy the rebellion for me! ”

Qi Tai's face changed: "Your Majesty, by all means!" Changing generals in battle is a taboo in the army, not to mention that General Geng has experienced a hundred battles and is resourceful, how can His Majesty abandon it because of temporary gains and losses? Looking at the court, who else is there a famous general who can compete with General Geng? ”

The scalps of the military officials have been blown up, the Jianwen Dynasty has gone through a year, and Taizu Yu Wei is still alive, if they remember correctly, this is the first time that someone has confronted His Majesty on the Jinluan Palace?

Of course, King Yan doesn't count, after all, King Yan dared to rebel.

The corners of Zhu Yunwen's eyes twitched, but he still suppressed his temper, after all, he didn't want the hundred officials to look at their small group: "There is no need to discuss this matter!" Counterinsurgency generals, I am bound to change! ”

Yes, this lord has set the tone, there is nothing to say, Qi Tai put his head on his face like a defeated dog, and silently retreated to the civil official queue in Fang Xiaoru's smug gaze.

Since it has been decided to change the main general, let's change it, there are more whispers in the Jinluan Palace, and many people are talking about the suitable object in their hearts, but no one stands up to promote... After all, His Majesty is not in a good mood now, and he doesn't even give face to the military department Shangshu who gets along with him on weekdays, and if the characters he recommends don't match His Majesty's wishes, won't he be reprimanded? That's why bother.

However, Fang Xiaoru, who mentioned this matter, did not speak, not that he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat the battle when he promoted someone, but that he really did not have a person who could be proposed.

Teaching Craftsman Teaching Craftsman... Just listening to the rumors of officialdom, you know who he deals with on weekdays, teaching students in Taixue, teaching His Majesty in Miyagi, except for the implementation of Zhou etiquette, he doesn't care much about other things, but this person likes to mix everything and put forward some bullshit opinions, and His Majesty has the courage to do it, which is really ridiculous.

Then Huang Zicheng, who had been silent, stood up: "Who said that I am a nameless general?" Your Majesty, the minister elects one person to share your Majesty's worries. ”

Zhu Yunwen leaned forward: "Aiqing just say it." ”

"Cao Guogong, Li Jinglong."

This name was a bit unexpected by the officials, but after a while, everyone actually nodded their heads in response to this opinion.

Who is Li Jinglong? The son of the founding general Li Wenzhong, the Duke of Caoguo, although he did not serve in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, he has been responsible for training the three battalions of the capital to guard the army over the years, and Xu Zengshou, the Governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, has also grown up together as a friend.

After the door, the identity is also appropriate, and at first glance it is really more suitable than Geng Bingwen.

However, Qi Tai stood up again: "Cao Guogong only trained for the imperial court, how could he have fought for the country?" If Cao Guogong is out of the horse, I am afraid that he is not the opponent of a battle-hardened person like Yan Wei, if His Majesty will definitely change the commander... The minister elected Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei! One is that the Duke of Wei went out with the King of Zhongshan at a young age, and he has been on the battlefield for a long time, and the second is that the Zhongshan Wangfu is the first house in my Ming Army, and the old department of the King of Zhongshan is all over the army. ”

"If you are good at training, you can naturally be good at fighting, how can Lord Qi, as the secretary of the military department, not understand such a simple truth? Although the Duke of Wei was loyal to the king and did not help the abuse, his sister was Princess Yan after all, if the Duke of Wei was unbearable on the battlefield... So it's better for Cao Guogong to be the commander. ”

Qi Tai's color changed: "I don't hear about 'talking on paper'!" ”

Li Jinglong, who was standing in the queue of honors, looked like he had opened a dyeing shop.

It's too faceless... In fact, Li Jinglong didn't want to take on this kind of errand, he was still a prince at a young age, and a lot of time was wasted, where did he want to play with Zhu Di? When he was a child, he also took classes with Zhu Di in the palace city, so what kind of ability and temperament Zhu Di has, does he not know? Don't look at the self-cultivation and reading books in the past few years, in fact, he is a scoundrel to the extreme, and he is on the same side, if he wins, he can't be crowned king, at most he will gain some fame, if he loses...

But it's one thing to want to go or not, it's one thing for Your Majesty to disagree, what do you mean by the fuck comparing Zhao Kuo to me?

Xu Huizu couldn't sit still at this moment, the relationship between him and Yan Wangfu was here, this kind of thing has always been avoided, and now Qi Tai has recommended him, standing up and speaking is not talking, not to mention that Qi Tai will not be an official anymore, praising himself and stepping on Li Jinglong, this kind of once powerful official will be killed sooner or later if he falls...

He stubbornly bowed his hand: "Minister... It's time to avoid suspicion. ”

Qi Tai was still crooked his nose and glared over there: "Wei Guogong, such a national event, what do you want to avoid?" The minister dares to guarantee his life, and the Duke of Wei is in charge, and he will defeat Yan against Beiping! ”

Where the fuck did you get your confidence... Xu Huizu was almost speechless, but he looked like a Confucian general with a jade tree in the wind, even if he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, he didn't show the slightest on his face, and this appearance of being pampered and not shocked made the eyes of other officials shine.

Huang Zicheng's temper also came up: "Cao Guogong will be competent for this!" ”

Fang Xiaoru smiled and said nothing.
